I have no intentions on raising. It COULD happen, but I doubt it. I want to tank, and I want to be a tank through the leveling up process. As a warrior, I understand I can do it as any spec as I level, as a Druid I'd need to be feral bear, and as a paladin I'm not quite sure, but I'm guessing prot. Warrior from what is gather, I'd probably level as arms/fury and switch to
Prot for "ease".
Also, from what I read, all of the above are fine for 5-mans, which is probably more towards my gaming speed.
I don't really mind what class I play, I just want to tank. Not heal (if I wanted to do that I'd be a priest). I should add that I don't have any characters to level ten yet, so this is essentially my first character. I realize we all have biases, but does anyone have any wisdom on the route to go?
You will enjoy tanking much more as a Paladin if all you intend to do is tank 5 man dungeons - Paladin AOE tanking makes you an asset to have because you can basically do speed runs for friends and guild mates.
As for the 11 / 9 / 31 spec that I personally use here on Nostalrius, this is it:

This is not exactly what I used on Warsong due to several bugs that are here on Nost (i.e.: Benediction, Sanctity Aura) but I currently either tank or pew pew in all 5man dungeons and LBRS/UBRS.
